When you create a Paragraph this way: Paragraph p1 = new Paragraph();
you don't define a leading, so the default leading (16pt) is used;
this is the default if you don't define any font; otherwise the
default font is 1.5 times the font size.
Then you add Phrases to these paragraph using font sizes that exceed
this default leading (20 > 16). Adding a Phrase with a specific font
to a Paragraph doesn't change the leading of this paragraph.
It's only normal that the last Paragraph overwrites the one before.
It's elementary; nothing is wrong here; iText is doing exactly what
you ask iText to do.
